MT. POINT SNORKELING ADVENTURE VIDEO
All geared up
Stay toasty warm in a state-of-the-art, 1/4 inch / 7mm wetsuit complete with hood, boots and gloves as you hover among Alaska's diverse and colorful marine life. Thanks to the Japanese Kiroshio current, long summer days and the lack of glaciers in this area surface temperatures reach a surprising 65 degrees in summer! After a short bus ride from town you are outfitted with all the equipment and given a brief orientation. Your group then enters the water from the rocky beach at Mountain Point.
Observe a variety of multicolored invertebrates including urchins, sea cucumbers and sea stars during the one-hour guided marine life tour. Discover the myriad of fish that inhabit these waters while snorkeling over the kelp forest. Nudibranchs, plume worms, mollusks and crustaceans are also plentiful. Back at the shop enjoy a hot beverage before returning to your ship.
